What is the big deal about studying other ethnic groups that scares white folk so much? I believe it is the mentality of fear that they have in being treated like they have treated others. Thus, they must again put down the racist screws in order to protect their race. However, there is no solidarity amongst white folk to "protect" each other as much as their is solidarity in attacking those who are not white.
